The program, said Mrs,
Davis, is a method adopted by
many congregations of Seventh
day Adventist to help enlarge
the denomination’s foreign mis
sions program
which now
reaches into 189 of the 213
countries of the world,
re
cognized by the United Nations.

Mutual Regrets ....
We’re going to lose our Mutual
friend Saturday evening when West
Coast Telephone Co. switches over
to the new Sandy dial office. No
longer will local phones be prefixed
with the familiar MUtual 7. instead
Sandy users will be required to dial
a strange and impersonal numerical
trio.
The new prefix will have no name
because, for some reason 1 have been
unable to determine, computers do
not take kindly to words and this
peculiarity of theirs is catered to by
their creators. However, although of
ficialdom will not christen the ex
change there is no law preventing its
users from giving it a pet name. The
alphabet equivalent on the dial for 66
is MNO. MNO. This gives us lots of
choices. We could call it OOdles. OM-
inous. ONward. MOdesty or MOisture
or even Mortgage, NOble. NOrmal
or NObody. Take your choice or make
up your own name. Perhaps you're
more flexible than we are and can
readily adjust to living with all num
ber phone numbers.
At any rate we are going to miss
MUtual. It was such a cozy word.
MUtual seemed to typify the closeness
and friendliness of the Sandy com
munity. It gave newcomers a feeling
of welcome and old-timers a sense of
togetherness. For over 13 years—ever
since September 1953 when dial
phones first came to the area -ours
has been a MUtual exchange.
Webster's defines MUTUAL as “en
tertained. proffered or exerted with
respect to each of the others of a
group; reciprocally given and receiv
ed." Progress has taken the word
from our telephones, but let's not take
it from our lives. Let's keep that Mu
tual 7 feeling in Sandy and not lose
ourselves in the anonymity of 66S-
ism.
Education Bills Coming I p
As always, education will loem
large in legislative deliberations come
1967.
Thus, it's with interest that we
read of proposals which will be pre
sented by the Oregon Education Assn.
A complete listing of their 12-point
program isn’t feasible but we'd like
to comment on three suggestions:
1. Legislation to amend the Corrupt
Practices Act to give teachers full
political rights.
2. Legislation making it possible
for school boards to disseminate in
formation to citizens regarding the
program needs of the schools.
3. Measures that would make the
office of State Supt. of Public In
struction appointive.
We certainly agree with No. 1.
Teachers should in no way be sec
ond-class citizens and should have full
political rights, not only to campaign
for and hold office but also to engage
in political activity. It should, ob
viously. be kept out of the classroom,
however.
We aren't completely sure what
is meant by No. 2 but we have our
★★★★
doubts. It sounds like the OEA wants
to use public funds with which school
boards may campaign for bond is
sues. school budgets etc. This would
not be right. We would want some
pretty specific restrictions written
into any such legislation.
Finally, we agree completely that
the recommendation that the state
superintendent be appointive; we did
so in the campaign last spring.
We don’t think the state superin
tendent should be embroiled in poli
tics; he should be an educator. We
trust the governor, or the legislature,
enough to feel certain they’d pick a
qualified man.
They'd certainly do a better job
than would the electorate when the
campaign
devolves into nothing
more than a political battle, as it
inevitably would.
The OEA proposals, as well as
scores of others concerning educa
tion. will get wide airing in the
next few months. They’re extremely
important and we’ll do our part to
get the information out.

GERMAN CLUB
Students from the MHCCGer
man Club placed a Christmas
tree on a wagon drawn by two
horses at 7:30 a.m. Friday
morning. The students rode on
the wagon for two-and-a-half
hours to reach the college
campus. Once on campus, the
group took the tree to the stu
dent center where it was dec
orated. Friday afternoon, many
other students joined this group
and sang Christmas songs in the
Student Center.
ADVISORY COMMITTEES
More than 60 persons from
the district were at the college
last Wednesday to participate in
several Advisory Committee
meetings. These citizens are
the first of two such groups.
The second group meets this
Wednesday. The purpose of the
advisory committees is to make
recommendations to the college
for the development of specified
areas such as vocational techni
cal education, library, and stu
dent personnel. Committee
members, who serve without
pay, come from locations
throughout the 950 square mile
college district.
HIGH SCHOOL VISITS
Tom Nielsen, director of
counseling, is conducting col
lege visitations at area high
schools. Many times Nielsen
and other MHCC instructors
are scheduled on high school
programs that include repre
sentatives from other colleges.
The knowledge that Mt. Hood
Community college is offering
quality education programs is
evidently spreading. Nielsen
has found that MHCC has had
50 per cent more students in
terested in attending Mt. Hood
than the combined average of the
other colleges.
College Gets
Gravel Deposit
A gravel deposit valued at
more than $75,000 is located
on the recently acquired per
manent site of Mt. Hood Com
munity College, Dr. Earl L.
Klapstein, college president,
announced today.
The site, located at the south
east corner of Stark St. and Kane
Rd., has long been known tohave
gravel
deposits. However,
Klapstein said, until final soil
analysis was completed tor the
college the extent of the de
posits were unknown.
The advantage of the gravel
to the college is that it provides
a ready source for use as con
struction base.
The total value of the gravel
to the college cannot be de
termined until final site plan
ning is completed early next
year and a decision is reached
about where excavated dirt is to
be deposited.
